England Stats & Team News

English hopes would have increased following a pulsating opening night performance against Croatia. Harry Kane was central to the excellent performance, with the Bayern Munich striker scoring twice.

Jude Bellingham also justified his selection with a man-of-the-match display. Defensive issues would be a concern, but the attacking quality dazzled in Dallas on MD1. Thomas Tuchel could rotate his team on Tuesday, with John Stones and Anthony Gordon failing to catch the eye after being handed shock starts.

Likely Lineup:

(4-2-3-1) Pickford (GK); James, Konsa, Guehi, O’Reilly; Anderson, Rice; Saka, Bellingham, Rashford; Kane

Ghana Stats & Team News

Ghana will also be looking to confirm their spot in the next round of the World Cup, but they will be massive outsiders to upset the odds. The Black Stars stumbled over the line on MD1 to get the better of Panama, utilizing their counterattacking style of play.

Their winning goal was scored in second half injury time, but they will need to perform to a higher level to threaten an upset against England. Antoine Semenyo will be key to their chances when the ball is turned over.

Likely Lineup:

(4-2-3-1) Zigi (GK); Mensah, Opoku, Adjetey, Senaya; Yirenkyi, Owusu; Semenyo, Nuamah, Sulemana; Ayew
